When a liar calls something a hoax, it's the truth.

Whatever it takes. The tide won't change until those who have been supporting him make it change.

Buuuuuuuut. Bill Clinton doesn't appear to be in the files.

It will be the irony of ironies that Clinton being in the Epstein files was the hoax and that Trump was the guilty pervert all the time.

Great idea. Should be a year end audit of the finances of everyone holding office.

Correct me if I'm wrong but their getting $1 million dollars was not part of the agreement.

Now look at the explosion of fury towards the GOP & Trump now that the vote to discharge has happened in the House & the Epstein letters from his estate have been released.

Dems won. The only way we squander that victory is by convincing ourselves, & the country, that we didn’t.
Bullet. Meet foot.

Take a deep breath. The GOP didn't care that the govt. was shut down thus there was no leverage in keeping it shut down. Meanwhile, children were starving and they're getting credit for feeding them.

Importantly, the conversation about the ACA isn't over. /1

Dems have managed to reframe the argument on affordability and the GOP will have hell to pay if they don't extend ACA subsidies now. All of that lies clearly at the feet of the GOP now and they let those subsidies lapse on their constituents at their own peril. The Dems didn't cave. They won. /2

Me, too!

I think you'll find that she misspoke. There has been a lot of hyperventilating about the govt opening back up. I'm on the side of those saying the GOP is in worse shape now than when everything was shutdown. Just look at the fury over the Epstein files the last 2 days. /1

"the provision comes w/ “limited retroactive applicability”
'“Arctic Frost,” looked at the timing of phone calls ... but not the actual contents of the communications'
These Senators are a long way from winning a court case that COULD award them SOME money./2

What is true is that supposedly 8 REPUBLICAN senators could POSSIBLY sue the govt. for having the cell phone records searched about J6. But there are caveats on this provision so it is hardly a done deal and nothing at all like a payout./1

I love AOC but she's wrong that these senators are getting 1 million dollars a piece. And now she's got the whole social media universe repeating a lie.
November 13, 2025 at 7:18 PM
Our comments crossed in the ether. See the article I posted from The Hill.

I, too, want to know the truth and have been following this pretty closely. I have not seen this reported any where else except in the speech by AOC - whom I admire - which I found just before I responded to your response.

Fine, Ms. Thinker. Cite the source the supports this claim.

Not barking in the wind. I love AOC but she's wrong on this one. Nowhere have I seen this being reported. But you're welcome to prove me wrong.
November 13, 2025 at 7:02 PM
They don't. Where are you getting your information from? Fox?
